Todd Gurvis

Todd Gurvis was raised to believe that doing well and doing good are not separate ideas. Rather, they are inseparable. This is evident in his strong dedication to community, charity, and family. An alumnus of Binghamton University, Todd spent almost sixteen years in non-profit management, events planning and fundraising before making the move to financial services in late 1994. His extensive background in fundraising and non-profit management provides him with a dynamic perspective on charitable planning, gift structuring, portfolio design and financial strategies for charitable agencies, their donors and their employees.

As the father of a special needs child, Todd has developed an expertise in planning for the unique needs of their families. Todd has been a BNI member for almost 20 years and a Rotarian for over 30 years. When he’s not at work, Todd advises and sits on the boards of several charities. However his focus on community encompasses more than charitable planning. Todd also designs early retirement strategies for mid-level executives and business owners, as well as generational wealth transference. He also has expertise in tailored planning for same-sex couples and is a two-time recipient of the West Hollywood Creative Business Award.

Todd holds his Series 6, 7, 26, and 63 Registrations with LPL Financial and is SIE certified. He is also an Investment Advisor Representative with Trilogy Capital, Inc. where he holds his Series 65 Registration, as well as life, long-term care, disability, and health insurance licenses.
